MUSIC

Ive nothing to do as usual, so Im listening to the songs I have on my cell!  That’s strange for me, cos until a couple of years back, I never was interested in music.  Id stored some songs on my comp, but then I hardly listened to an entire song, probably I didn’t have the patience or I just had better and more interesting options, like playing cricket or flying kites, playing cards !!  When I look in hindsight I feel that im not used to being alone / lonely, Ive always stayed amongst my family people, all my cousins have been around most of the time.  So I think that might have been the reason why I didn’t wanna sit in one place listening to music, cos that’s what Id had to do alone, I never go for movies alone, I don’t like to eat out alone, basically I don’t enjoy alone, Id rather not enjoy if im alone.  Isnt it better to be with friends / relatives ?

Coming back to music, ive taken some interest in music off late, and the reason is that Ive become a “Software Engineer”.  The definition of this term is -  A person, who gets paid for finding new options of doing time pass alone.  There are some “jhingurs” who work hard and keep crying, but I don’t care.  I live to enjoy life and make new friends each day.  So sitting here doing nothing, I started listening to music and started to use Winamp more frequently @ home, honestly Im enjoying it

I like all types of music that feels good to the ears!  I remember when I was a kid there was a huge craze of MJ after “BAD” released and I saw every1 wearing the BAD Tees, I never heard MJ then though.  I like all MJ tracks, some singers like Aatif Aslam, Mustafa Zahid from Pakistan are too good … I like to listen to Justin Timberlake, Savage garden, Deff Leppard, Sting, Cranberries, Bryan Adams, Enrique Iglasias.  Some Iranian singers like Arash and Afshin(I love “khoshgel”), the oldies are the ones I love as well – Hasan Jahangir, Nazia Hasan, Mohammed Rafi, Abba, Bee Gees…

Lots of songs, and lots of good Music to hear from all around the world and theres hoards of talent out there.  The combination of good beats and meaningful lyrics make a huge impact, obviously the singer is the most important factor.  I don’t regret not listening to music seriously in my childhood, cos I enjoyed a lot anyways.

RAW POWER

Bruce Lee is the man who reminds me of raw power, his physique was immaculate, and he had probably the lowest body fat in the world.  Many see Lee as a model for acquiring a strong and efficient body and the highest possible level of physical fitness, as well as developing a mastery of martial arts and hand to hand combat skills.  His speed was awesome and skills, well I don’t need to elaborate on that one, no one can match him, and at least so far no one has.  He was a philosopher, instructor and a martial arts actor.

His physical feats are mind boggling, he could perform push-ups using only his thumbs –ive tried doing push-ups with four fingers and all I can say is its kinda impossible to do it with yr thumbs.  His “one-inch” punch was mid boggling, he used to place his fist an inch away from the target and the punch that resulted from that one inch of distance was enough to send the fittest on the bed for atleast a day or two.            Unfortunately he didn’t live long, how he died is yet a mystery and there are lots of stories revolving around his death, for me he is a hero a true hero.  He completed only 4 films in his short lifetime, The Big Boss (1971) Fist of Fury (1972) Way of the Dragon (1972) Enter the Dragon (1973)Please do have a look at these movies, they are worth watching.  I feel so sad that successful and talented people are looked upon with envy.  We should all try and inculcate in ourselves the best that we see in others and try and become a better person, rather than getting jealous of others accomplishments / talent.  Its tough to do that I know but I stay that ways and Im very happy, you guys try it out too and you will live a better life for sure.  No jealousy, no war!
